The main objective is to evaluate the facial function in patients with UCM. In this study we set out to evaluate how the facial deformity influences the self-esteem and self-evaluation i.e. satisfaction of the patients and what the valence is of…
To gain a better insight into the genetic factors that play a role in the etiology of the thoracic aortic aneurysm with the following specific aims:1. Study of specific geneitc factos that play a role in the pathogenesis of both syndromic and non-…
The present protocol addresses these issues, with a systematic approach where we first assess optimal settings for BCI, and then test the quality of BCI application in adequately sized groups of subjects. The whole project is aimed at obtaining a…
To evaluate the clinical usefulness of the VU-AMS in pediatric cardiology.To validate and improve the measures of stroke volume from the VU-AMS device in a clinical population. VU-AMS stroke volume measures will be compared with stroke volume…
1. Identification of gene(s) causing RS. 2. Understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms leading to the various manifestations of RS.3. Enabling molecular diagnostics for RS.
We aim to identify biomarkers (from neuroimaging, eye tracking, EEG, cognition, biochemistry, proteomics, genomics) for stratification of ASD. Biomarkers will be crucial to aid more accurate and earlier diagnosis of ASD. They are also needed for…
Primary Objective is to determine whether (A) patients with dystonia(plus) syndromes exhibit more psychiatric symptoms compared to a healthy control group and (B) whether dystonia patients show an altered serotonin metabolism (serotonin transporter…
The objective of the study is to identify genetic causes of developmentalanomalies of the face and skull (craniofacial anomalies), such as orofacial clefting, craniosynostosis, abnormal dental development and rare craniofacial syndromes.

To detect potential genomic denominators between tumorgenesis factors in neuroblastoma and differentiated thyroid carcinoma.
The purpose of this study is to test whether perceptual expectations modulate V1 activity consistent with *hypo-priors* in autistic individuals.
The main objective of this prospective population-based study of patients with proximal SMA in the Netherlands is to register SMA patients in the Netherlands in a socalled SMA-database to study prevalence and severity of SMA types 1-4, to perform…
Aim of this study is to examine the mechanisms by which attachment style and emotion regulation relate to depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms in a clinical and non-clinical Dutch population.
The overall aim of this project is to elucidate the interaction between stress and epileptic seizures in childhood epilepsy. The specific aim of this study is to compare the possible differences in stress hormone regulation, hippocampal function and…
We wish to study the absolute numbers, ratio and phenotype of CD27+IgE+ and CD27-IgE+ memory-B-cells in blood of atopic children who suffer from proven IgE-mediated asthma/hay fever, atopic dermatitis or food allergy and compare these with healthy…
